We present a detailed analysis for a subset of the high resolution (~35 mas, or 5 au) ALMA observations from the Disk Substructures at High Angular Resolution Project (DSHARP) to search for faint 1.3 mm continuum emission associated with…
Planet formation is thought to begin with the growth of dust particles in protoplanetary disks from micrometer to millimeter and centimeter sizes. Dust growth is hindered by a number of growth barriers, according to dust evolution theory,…
Recent observations of protoplanetary disks (PPDs) in the sub-mm have revealed the ubiquity of annular substructures, indicative of pebble-sized dust particles trapped in turbulent ring-like gas pressure bumps. This major paradigm shift…
The level of dust vertical settling and radial dust concentration in disks is of critical importance for understanding the efficiency of planet formation. We present the first uniform analysis of the vertical extent of millimeter dust for a…
In this paper we discuss the influence of gravitational instabilities in massive protostellar discs on the dynamics of dust grains. Starting from a Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) simulation, we have computed the evolution of the dust…
We propose a mechanism by which dust rings in protoplanetary disks can form and be long-lasting compared to gas rings. This involves the existence of a pressure maximum which traps dust either in between two gap-opening planets or at the…
The statistics of discovered exoplanets suggest that planets form efficiently. However, there are fundamental unsolved problems, such as excessive inward drift of particles in protoplanetary disks during planet formation. Recent theories…
The Disk Substructures at High Angular Resolution Project (DSHARP) provides a large sample of protoplanetary disks having substructures which could be induced by young forming planets. To explore the properties of planets that may be…
The meter-size barrier in protoplanetary disks is a major challenge in planet formation, for which many solutions were suggested. One of the leading solutions is dust traps, that halt or slow the inward migration of dust particles. The…
In the past few years, ALMA unveiled a variety of substructures (rings, spirals, crescents) in the continuum emission of most protoplanetary disks imaged at high spatial resolution. While the majority of disks presents axisymmetric…
Context. Particle trapping in local or global pressure maxima in protoplanetary disks is one of the new paradigms in the theory of the first stages of planet formation. However, finding observational evidence for this effect is not easy.…
Understanding planet formation requires to discern how dust grows in protoplanetary disks. An important parameter to measure in disks is the maximum dust grain size present. This is usually estimated through measurements of the dust opacity…
Investigating the dynamical evolution of dust grains in proto-planetary disks is a key issue to understand how planets should form. We identify under which conditions dust settling can be constrained by high angular resolution observations…
Context: How planets form in protoplanetary disks and what drives the formation of their seeds is still a major unknown. It is an accepted theory that multiple processes can trap dusty material in radially narrow rings or vortex-like…
Rings and gaps are ubiquitous in protoplanetary disks. Larger dust grains will concentrate in gaseous rings more compactly due to stronger aerodynamic drag. However, the effects of dust concentration on the ring's thermal structure have not…
The settling of dust particles plays a critical role in the growth and dynamics of dust grains. We performed a detailed modeling of the ALMA continuum substructures for six highly inclined protoplanetary discs using radiative transfer…
The streaming instability is the leading model for planetesimal formation in protoplanetary disks, but it typically operates within the first ~Myr. In the Solar System, however, some planetesimals (the chondrite parent bodies) formed 2-4…
Rings and gaps are commonly observed in the dust continuum emission of young stellar disks. Previous studies have shown that substructures naturally develop in the weakly ionized gas of magnetized, non-ideal MHD disks. The gas rings are…
We explore planet formation in the HL Tau disk and possible origins of the prominent gaps and rings observed by ALMA. We investigate whether dust gaps are caused by dynamically trapped planetary embryos at the ice lines of abundant…
We present a 3D semi-analytic model of self-gravitating discs, and include a prescription for dust trapping in the disc spiral arms. Using Monte-Carlo radiative transfer we produce synthetic ALMA observations of these discs. In doing so we…
